January 11, 2018—Getting back in the Saddle
Four months have come and gone, and it’s back into the thrall of capstone! Here’s an overview of somethings from today’s two classes
Over my Co-op
I realized I want to include more print EGD included in the project. So in addition to the kennel card, a social flyer for the web and some weekly pet feature boards for around the kennel itself.
Also want to try to make a small motion piece. Whether it’s a mini process video or a small animation of some of the finished icons, I don’t know. -Found a helpful book called Infinite Icon that is just a plethora of different icon systems and their functions/projects. Should prove helpful.
During Classes
–Group activity of categorizing and finding relating themes among all of the Senior’s capstone projects –Broke into groups to look at the trends and patterns across all projects to come up with a name for the DAAPworks show. –My group came up with the name RE: Changing Convention. We’ll vote from all the group’s options to decide the name possibilities of the show.
Personal Growth
–Exercise helped me focus my project: the motivation is to invoke a response or action, the mood is friendly and easy to comprehend, and the activity is adopting. This will help dictate graphic styles and choices later.
—Idea for project display to have a replica cat kennel such that these fliers could live in context
